Buffalo = Rs 20000 The milkman made a gain of 5% while selling one buffalo.

This means if C.P. is Rs 100, then S.P. is Rs 105. C.P. of one buffalo =2000×100/105= Rs 19,047.62

Also, the second buffalo was sold at a loss of 10%.

This means if C.P. is Rs 100, then S.P. is Rs 90.


C.P. of other buffalo =2000×100/90
= Rs 22222.22

Total C.P. = Rs 19047.62 + Rs 22222.22 = Rs 41269.84

Total S.P. = Rs 20000 + Rs 20000 = Rs 40000

Loss = Rs 41269.84 − Rs 40000 = Rs1269.84

Ans,- ,the loss of milkman is, Rs 1,269.84.

Hope it helps you.
please mark me brainliest.

SP of first buffalo = Rs 20,000
Gain = 5%
CP = Rs 100/ 100+5 × 20,000
= Rs 4,00,000/21
= Rs 19047.62

SP of second buffalo = Rs 20,000
Loss = 10%
CP = Rs 100/100-10 × 20,000
= Rs 100/90 × 20,000
= Rs 2,00,000/9
= Rs 22,222.22

Overall SP = Rs 20,000 × 2 = Rs 40,000
Overall CP = Rs ( 19,047.62 + 22,222.22)
= 41,269.84

CP > SP
SO THERE IS A LOSS.

LOSS = Rs ( 41,269 - 40,000)
= Rs 1,269.84
